46

• ON the evening of that first day of the week,

• when the doors were locked, where the disciples were,

• for fear of the Jews,• Jesus came and stood in their

midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.”

• When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side.

47

• The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

• Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you.

• As the Father has sent me, so I send you.”

• And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them,

• “Receive the Holy Spirit.

48

• Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them,

• Thomas, called Didymus, one of the Twelve,

• was not with them when Jesus came.

• So the other disciples said to him, “We have seen the Lord.”

• But he said to them,

49

• “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands and put my finger into the nailmarks

• and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

• Now a week later his disciples were again inside

• and Thomas was with them.• Jesus came, although the doors

were locked,

50

• and stood in their midst and said, “Peace be with you.”

• Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and see my hands, and bring your hand and put it into my side,

• and do not be unbelieving, but believe.”

• Thomas answered and said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

51

• Jesus said to him, “Have you come to believe because you have seen me?

• Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”

• Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples

• that are not written in this book.• But these are written that you may

come to believe

52

• that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God,

• and that through this belief you may have life in his name.

• The Gospel of the Lord.• Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
